The Lyrics
I proffer gelt to you
At divorce time.
Shoulda had a prenup, it's true.
Now I'm cryin'--
Out money's flyin'.
The matrimony bit
Was gettin' me down.
Now I'm a sugar daddy,
Handing out dough for new wedding gown.
I proffer gelt to you. . .
Remarriage time,
My dime.
Number 2,
Number 2,
Number 2,
Number 2 is a clown
Who gets a share
Of all the money
You're pullin' down.
You bleed me.
I proffer gelt to you
At divorce time.
[fade on sound of money being counted]
At divorce time.
Shoulda had a prenup, it's true.
Now I'm cryin'--
Out money's flyin'.
The matrimony bit
Was gettin' me down.
Now I'm a sugar daddy,
Handing out dough for new wedding gown.
I proffer gelt to you. . .
Remarriage time,
My dime.
Number 2,
Number 2,
Number 2,
Number 2 is a clown
Who gets a share
Of all the money
You're pullin' down.
You bleed me.
I proffer gelt to you
At divorce time.
